Can I sue my employer for cutting benefits out of my benefit package I was hired with?


I was hired 6 years ago with an great benefit package. Now my employer is attempting to take some of those away. They want to take away my company issued vehicle as well as change all my co-pays and deductibles on my health insurance. Some people have quit because of this. Can I sue or something to keep my benefits?

You should look for a new job and quit. Don't say anything until you find a new job. When you quit, be sure to tell them why. That's all you can really do.

Unless you have a contract, or are part of a union that has a collective bargaining agreement it's unlikely you can sue. Generally non-contract employment is known as "at-will" which means either party can alter the terms at any time. The court's going to say that you're alternative is to quit and find a new job.

you could, but you'd lose pretty fast and a decent lawyer would tell you not to do it.

Companies have the right to change their compensation packages.

You can only sue if the benefits are changed during a contract period. Otherwise, you can quit like others.

LOL - yeah. you try that.

Unless you have a contract... you are gonna have to deal with it.
